Rather than tossin' a bucket of water on blood-stains each time, you might wanna try a SOAKED towel on them...you'll get less water in the boat and keep the stains from setting...

I used a piece of 1/4" rubber under my pump...5200 holds it to the bottom of the boat and short SS screws into the rubber have been there since '99

Also if you are loaded with water in the forward areas of your bildge it might be getting stopped ftom flowing back to the pump area by clogged drain holes thru the stringers etc. Run a , I forget the name, the thing thhe electricians use to pull wires thru, up the holes and make sure they are clear, you are likely to find that some are clogged to the point very little water flows thru.
